Almond Crème Fibergy™ & Peach Mango Fibergy™

The Importance of a Low-Fat, High Fiber Diet

Grain products, fruits and vegetable are diets rich in fiber, low in saturated fat and cholesterol.  Consuming multiple sources of dietary fiber can be beneficial because different types of fiber provide specific benefits and act in different ways in the body.  Unfortunately, the normal diet in today's society includes only one-half to two-thirds of the fiber necessary for optimal health.  The positive impact of a high fiber diet is increased when there is a concurrent reduction in the amount of saturated fat consumed.


Truth About Fiber

A diet high in fiber, containing grain products, fruits, and vegetables can help you maintain a healthy digestive system and long-term good health.  Fibergy is a testy drink mix which provides a significant source of dietary fiber.

 Fibergy is available in two flavours: fresh, fruity Peach Mango and delicious Almond Creme~!  We shall now take a look at the nutrition facts of both the flavours as they both vary from each other in terms of content. 



Almond Crème Fibergy™



The  Almond Crème Fibergy™ is a great drink on its own, but it can be added onto the Nutrimeal as an added extra.  I usually do that.  So below is the nutrition facts of the Almond Crème Fibergy™. 

 

I myself mix the Almond Crème Fibergy™ with the Nutrimeal™ Dutch Chocolate and make it into a smoothie which I enjoy with my morning workouts.  Of course there are many more recipes for me to try out.

So now we shall take a look at the Peach Mango Fibergy™.



Peach Mango Fibergy™

 

 The Peach Mango Fibergy™ is a fabulous drink on its own and can be added to many other drinks to make it taste good and healthy.  Healthy doesn't have to taste bad, so check out the nutrition facts of the Peach Mango Fibergy™ below.

 

I would be experimenting with the Peach Mango Fibergy™ with the Nutrimeals as well. 

 It looks like that is all to see about the 2 Fibergy flavours.  Of course recipes will be posted up from time to time for the benefit of those who are interested in a fiber drink that taste good~!

If you like to get your hands on the Fibergy, both flavours are currently retailing at RM132.  You can get the Fibergy from me at wholesale price of RM110 a can.  This would mean you are saving RM22 per can.  So come and get the Fibergy today~! 

Nutrimeal™ Dutch Chocolate & Nutrimeal™ French Vanilla

The Healthy and Tasty Shake




The Nutrimeal is a balanced meal-replacement shake mix that provides a source of quality proteins from soy and whey along with fiber and a comprehensive array of vitamins. Its low Glycemic Index ("GI") formula is designed to deliver sustained energy.  Both Nutrimeal flavours has a GI of 25.  I shall provide a post regarding the Glycemic Index to make it easier to understand. 

With the introduction of the new flavour and the new gusset bag packaging, we will now take a look at the 3 flavours that is now available in Malaysia.   


Nutrimeal™ Dutch Chocolate



The Nutrimeal™ Dutch Chocolate has a great taste and there are so many possibilities of recipes to follow to make it taste all the better as well as making it healthier~!  Come, lets take a look at the nutrition facts on the Nutrimeal™ Dutch Chocolate.



The nutrition varies a little from 1 flavour to another.  So that is the reason why I am posting up the nutrients facts.  The variation is not that noticeable unless you compare them side by side. 

So now lets take a look at the Nutrimeal™ French Vanilla.



Nutrimeal™ French Vanilla



The Nutrimeal™ French Vanilla has been said to have more recipes and flavour manipulation as compared to the Nutrimeal™ Dutch Chocolate.  That could be the main reason why it is selling better than the Nutrimeal™ Dutch Chocolate.  But with the introduction of the new flavour, there might be a change of taste of the flavours of the Nutrimeals.

Now lets take a look at the nutrition facts of the Nutrimeal™ French Vanilla. 




 Here is a little tip for you.  Click on the nutrition fact and you get to see a little extra.



 Nutrimeal™ Wild Strawberry





 
The Nutrimeal™ French Vanilla is open to more recipes and flavour manipulation as compared to the Nutrimeal™ Dutch Chocolate.  That might be the reason why it is sold out and would only be available from middle of January onwards.  I can't believe how well the Nutrimeal™ French Vanilla is doing.

Now lets take a look at the nutrition facts of the Nutrimeal™ French Vanilla.

 

The Nutrimeals are currently retailing at RM155 per can.  You can get the Nutrimeals from me at the wholesale price of RM125, which gives you a saving of RM30 per gusset bag.  So come and get your Nutrimeals and see how it can help you lose weight using the RESET Program below.

You can find out more about the RESET Program by Clicking Here or by clicking on the RESET button below.  So come, follow me towards resetting your weight~!




RESET Program



Five Days To A New You
The 5-Day RESET Program is a nutritionally balanced program of macronutrients (high quality protein, good carbohydrates, and healthy fats) and micronutrients (vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants). The program is simple, as I will be discussing it further.

Third Party Research & Recommendation

In Malaysia there are many nutritional supplements that are being sold in the market currently.  This is a fact as you can see tonnes of vitamins are sold on the shelves of pharmacies.  But how do you really choose your supplement?
  • By price? 
  • By promotion of "Buy 2 Free 1" ? 
  • By brand name? 
  • Or by quality? 
But how do we know about the quality of the supplements that are on the shelves?  Well fortunately for everyone there is a book that actually helps review the various multi-vitamins that are in the various different markets, like in the USA and Canada as well as Australia.  The book is is titled "Nutrisearch Comparative Guide to Nutritional Supplements" and it reviews 1500 products all over the USA and Canada.  There is also an Australian version which reviews 500 products all over Australia.  Here is a glimpse of the book~!



This book is available at any major bookstores in Malaysia.  The Australian version is not available here as it is only available in Australia.  But worry not, I shall get my hands on a copy so that you can take a look at its comparisons.

Of course the Essentials has been chosen as the Editor's Choice in the latest version which is the Consumer Edition. 

Please contact me to have a read through of the book and see how significant this research is in terms of nutritional supplements.  My details are located at the right side bar and again, please do not hesitate to inquire or ask me anything you want to know.  I will answer with the best of my abilities.

Testimonials

Hello, these are testimonials that I had recorded myself as well as found from others who are into the business like me.  Of course these testimonials are regarding the products.



Below are the videos that I found on YouTube from another distributor like myself. Credits to Azmi Katiman / jemitube.

This are the video testimonials that I had collected from youtube and all of these are made possible with thanks to Azmi Katiman / jemitube.



Next are testimonials which are from another distributor such as myself whom I met online.  I also got the opportunity to meet up with her.  She is a nice person who has allowed me to use her testimonials.  So lets take a look at the her testimonials and the testimonials she received from her consumers as well as her downlines. 


This is her own testimonial which can be found at http://www.mrmrsimran.com/.








  • She had lost 6kg in one and a half months time.
  • Her skin complexion improved for the better and she saw less pimples.
  • Her husband used to suffer from sinus (or in BM it is called resdung), acne and mouth ulcer.  His health and skin condition improved with reduced acne problem.  Her husband's mouth ulcer is now a forgotten history in the chapters of their life. 
  • She was suffering from severe joint pains after giving birth to her lovely son, Darwis Ichiro~!  As she had mentioned on her blog, it was extremely painful for her to move her legs, bend her knee, straighten her fingers and much more.  She was back to normal after taking USANA's Procosa II which are meant for joint problems.

The following are the feedback she had received from her customers regarding the USANA products that she had sold to them. (No changes were made as it directly came from http://www.mrmrsimran.com/usana-health-sciences/testimonial/)

I experienced irregular period with a very minimal flow since I got married about 2++ years ago. Doc suspects me having PCOS, due to the imbalance hormones inside my body. And I think my stressfull work and hectic life also contributing to this.
I started with USANA since 01 August 2009, 2 tablets for each AO Pro and Chelated Minerals and a tablet of Provflavanol everyday. I had my period about two weeks later and guess what, the flow that was very minimal before had increased. Still minimal, but more than before. Alhamdulillah, that was a good sign.
I continue with USANA until my 2nd period cycle. By the time, I’d placed my second order of USANA Essentials. This time I increase to 4 tablets per day (2 morning and 2 night) and 3 tablets for Provflavanol (2 morning and 1 night). For the 2nd cycle, the flow is getting heavier. Still not heavy enough, but for me it’s good. Well, even my progress it quite slow than others, at least for me it works, dengan izin Allah. Alhamdulillah.
Now I will continue consuming USANA and hopefully things will get better as before. Pray for me. Arifa via blog [she’s taking essentials and proflavanol]

So these are some of the few strong testimonials she had received from her customers. Of course USANA has helped many others in terms of their health, but of course USANA also provides a business opportunity which you can contact me get more details about.



But now we shall take a look at some of the testimonials that I had the opportunity of capturing during my stint in USANA on HD using my camera, the Panasonic Lumix Z07. Unfortunately I am facing difficulty editing the videos as the videos are very large in size due to its HD (High Definition) quality.



Moving onto a major testimonial that was even published in one of the MAJOR Malay magazine NONA, the sister to the Yang di-Pertuan Agong Sultan Mizan Zainal Abidin consumes USANA products as well as providing it to her family for their well being.  Below are the cut out from the NONA magazine which was from the month of August 2007.





Nona August 2007 issue.

Again Tengku Norhana Fatihah.

Now at the bottom here we have a newspaper article cutting that talks about people's testimonial regarding the products.
